A store sells a variety of sets for building molecular models. The sets are described by the diagram below. Each circled letter

represents a box of 6 model atoms of one element. For example, the circled letter "P" represents a box with 6 model phosphorous atoms.
Set 1 has 12 carbon, 12 oxygen, and 18 hydrogen atoms. Set 2 has 12 carbon, 12 oxygen, and 24 hydrogen atoms. Set 3 has 6 carbon, 12 oxygen, 12 hydrogen, 6 nitrogen, and 6 phosphorous atoms. Set 4 has 6 carbon, 6 oxygen, 6 hydrogen, and 6 phosphorous atoms.

Kendra wishes to build a model of a carbohydrate molecule, ideally containing as many monomers as possible. Which set should she choose?

A. Set 1
B. Set 2
C. Set 3
D. Set 4

Answer:

B. Set 2

Explanation:

Carbohydrate is one of the four biological molecules in living systems (others are proteins, lipids and nucleic acid). The carbohydrate molecule consists of a long chain of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen elements in a ratio 1:2:1. Hence, the simplest unit of a carbohydrate has an empirical formula of (CH2O)n where n is the number of chains.

According to the question, a store sells a variety of sets for building molecular models and Kendra wishes to build a model of a carbohydrate molecule. Since carbohydrate monomers have a CH2O formula, Kendra needs a set in which the ratio of carbon: hydrogen: oxygen is 1:2:1. SET 2 fits this description by containing 12 carbon, 12 oxygen, and 24 hydrogen atoms

That is, carbon (12/12) : hydrogen (24/12) : oxygen (12/12), which is 1:2:1. Therefore, SET 2 is the best choice for Kendra in order to build her model of carbohydrate molecule containing as many monomers as possible.

               The right answer for the blank is cleavage.

Explanation:

                 After fertilization the next step is cleavage in which zygote divide mitotically. As the embryo move from oviduct down the fallopian tube it divide into two cell and then four cells. four cell embryo is known as blastomere.

olga55 [171]

Answer:

Cellulose is held by beta 1,4-glycosidic bonds making it linear while Glycogen is held by an alpha 1,4-glycosidic bond making it highly branched.

Explanation:

Cellulose and Glycogen are both carbohydrate polysaccharides formed from glucose monomers. According to the question, cellulose is a tough, fibrous, and insoluble (in water) polymer found to play a structural role in plants' cell wall while Glycogen is another polymer obtained from muscle or liver and disperses readily in hot water to make a turbid solution.

Although these two polysaccharides (cellulose and glycogen) are linked by (1, 4)-glycosidic bonds but the glucose monomers in CELLULOSE are linked by a beta 1,4-glycosidic, hence, making it a straight or linear polymer

GLYCOGEN, on the other hand, is linked by an alpha 1,4-glycosidic bond making it an highly branched polymer. This structure is responsible for the different physical properties of the two molecules.

olganol [36]
Hey there,

When lifting, the paramedic should spread his or her legs <span>shoulder-width</span> apart?

This reason could be understandable and common sense. You do not want to open someones legs like the size of your full arm, because you could break there legs, this is why it is necessary why to do this.

mariarad [96]
Schizocoelic development

The coelom is a fluid-filled body cavity, where the internal organs are suspended in. It is the cavity between the wall of the body and the digestive tract.

In the schizocoelic development of the embryo, the coelom, called the schizocoel, develops as a split in the mesoderm. The outer layer of the mesoderm attaches with the ectoderm to form a body's musculature, while the inner layer attaches with the endoderm to form the wall of the digestive tract. 

This type of development is commonly found in annelids, arthropods, and mollusks.
